The CPE hours a licensed CPA must complete in each US state and territory to renew, as published by NASBA's National Registry of CPE Sponsors. Covers total hours, reporting period, ethics requirement, and other subject-area mandates. Answers 'how many CPE hours does a CPA need in [state]', 'what is the ethics CPE requirement for CPAs in Texas', 'which states require CPA CPE in government auditing or accounting and auditing', and 'do my CPE hours from another state count'. The scenario as briefed ('professional licensing CE by jurisdiction') spans dozens of independent regulatory datasets across professions; this asset covers CPAs because NASBA publishes a structured, per-jurisdiction page for all 55 boards of accountancy — the only profession in the scenario with a single cross-jurisdiction authority table. Nursing and insurance producer CE are different datasets with different regulators and no equivalent assembled source.

Provenance — what every record carries

Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one; these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on the canonical site at its url.

Licence position

Facts and short attributed quotes from NASBA's publicly accessible, no-registration per-jurisdiction CPE requirements pages, linking back. Facts are not copyrightable (Feist, 1991). No NASBA page carries a restrictive reuse notice. The NASBA Registry Terms of Use at nasbaregistry.org/terms-of-use govern the course-search functionality, not the CPE requirements reference pages.

Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
